Sol Sunguard - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

bigbarrels · 09-24-2010, 06:20 PM

Ever try Sol Sunguard sunblock? It says on the bottle it causes no eye sting which just flippin sucks when you are OTW.....have two bottles to try out just wondering if I need to pick something else up as well. Banana Boat sunblock just kills my eyes after awhile......What do you like to use? Thanks in advance

Forgot about Headhunters......maybe I'll do that as well

Headhunter original. The ghost face lets you know it's working.

I have meant to post this. I was on the water, using Banana something sport....I was sweating, and I had that crap running in my eyes, everything...OUCH. And, I still got too much sun!

Did some research, found out the best stuff uses Titanium Oxide, and /or Zinc Oxide...Yes the white stuff..

I now use CVS Sensitive skin (Same as Neutrogena Sensitive skin).
This stuff ROCKS! wont sweat off, run off, and even after a full day, I get no sunburn, or even feel like I got sun!

I look like a ghost, or like Micheal Jackson, but its worth it!!!

I think the main thing is look for products that use Zinc oxide, or Titanium Oxide...They work the best, are the healthiest for you...

Hope this helps

I have used Sol a few times, including today in the sun. Works great, no stingy eyes. Goes on kinda thick, which is ok with me, must mean its working. Two thumbs up

Try the ''baby'' version of your favorite sunblock, easy on the eyes.

Very expensive face stick, works better than headhunter stick and washes off more easily. Had a week of surfing in mainland mex this summer, 8 hours a day in the water, 2 applications a day, worked great. Available in surf shops.
